Voting An Answer Or Question

Question

Sorry for troubling you again, mods...

Is "voting" an answer or a question in the forum "Questions & Answers" a bad thing or a good thing (because it's a bad thing in a battle)? And why am I suddenly able to vote in this forum?

Voting a question or an answer means that it's a good/helpful reply or question. Answers with the most votes (most helpful) appear first on the list. [Unless 'sorted by date' instead]

Only Advanced members are allowed to up-vote questions and answers, hence you're suddenly able to do so.

Yes, and no. Players ask question when in doubt and we welcome answers from anyone who is knowledgeable about it and is willing to help. But, we prefer players to leave a question as it is if they are unaware of the answer to it. We don't want to confuse anyone furthermore than they already are. 

Hence, if you see a question and somebody answered it really well, you can 'upvote' their answer and it would be sent above the other posts (the post with higher votes stays up). However, if you are not sure about the answer, and are upvoting it simply because you are curious or the person answering the question is a friend then it is better not to. 

However, moderators have the option to mark an answer correct which would remain on top regarsless of the number of votes. 

Second thing is voting for 'questions'. You will see a similar voting option for a quetion topic. If you upvote a topic, it would be added to the sections list where frequently asked questions are present. 

So now, if you @SHREYA88 go back to 'Question And Answers' main section, you will find you topic under 'popular questions' because your question/topic has the highest votes atm.

Thanks!

But I've been in the Advanced group for quite some time now... Dunno, I just noticed that I can vote today...
